February 17, 2025 Viltrox AF 28mm F4.5 X-Mount Gallery

In September of 2024 I released a review of the Viltrox AF 28mm F4.5 “Chip” lens for Sony E-mount. One of the most common requests I got in the responses to my review was for a Fuji X-mount version. I found that interesting, as the “Chip” (Viltrox’s name for the lens) is a full frame […] [Read more...]

February 13, 2025 Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro ANC Earbuds Review

Last year I reviewed the Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro earbuds, and I gave them a bit of a mixed review.  On the plus side, I loved the sound quality, very effective ANC, the packaging, and the integration of software features.  On the negative side, I had three primary disappointments 1) couldn’t get a good fit […] [Read more...]

February 10, 2025 Fuji Standard Zoom Showdown Part 2

My most popular video of 2024 was a showdown between the (then) primary standard zoom options available on the Fuji X-mount platform – the Fuji XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 R LM OIS, XF 16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR, and the Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DN. My surprising conclusion was that the Sigma actually held up the best […] [Read more...]

It was just a little over a month ago that I spent time reviewing the Yongnuo 33mm F1.4 DA DSM WL Pro lens, which I knew was the first to release from a series of three lenses in YN’s “Commander” series. I was quite impressed with the 33mm for a number of reasons, including the […] [Read more...]

February 3, 2025 Fujinon XF 16-50mm F2.8-4.8 R LM WR Gallery

Fuji’s original 18-55mm F2.8-4 OIS was often used as proof positive that Fuji’s APS-C platform was the best. Before I began to test Fuji, I heard the lens hyped to epic proportions. When I got around to reviewing it in 2019, I was frankly a bit disappointed. In 2024 I revisited the Fuji standard zooms […] [Read more...]
